moveurfeet32 99 Report post Posted January 2 Hofstra and Lehigh both EIWA members will meet today to open their seasons...Why in the World won't they keep team score??...I understand we are in a difficult time by why wouldn't they just keep team score and have other matches as exhibition? This is from the Lehigh website Saturday's match will feature a wrinkle compared to normal dual matches. In lieu of a traditional dual meet, there will be 16 individual matches that will count towards the individual wrestler's season record, but there will not be an official team score.

MagnetBack 33 Report post Posted January 2 Makes sense. Duals have no bearing on the national tournament. With no official national champion for dual meets, I've always wondered why dual meet scores are kept since they don't mean anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idaho 805 Report post Posted January 2 Maybe both schools have a number of starters quarantined and decided to go a non traditional route rather than cancel. I would rather see a few starters and a few back ups wrestle with no team score than a cancellation. Of course everything is speculation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That can't be - a well known Lehigh poster has been posting match PBP on the Lehigh site. (Or was that a well-known Lehigh Prankster?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lehigh of all teams does not back away from any duals, unlike some higher ranked teams that have done so with individual wrestlers to protect rankings.

Cornell's rate is for one week, Lehigh's for the year. If you compare the week that you quoted for Cornell, 12/17-12/23, Cornell had 22 positives and Lehigh had 2.
